"Someone strong?" Recette tilted her head. Most of the strong people she knew were back home, she didn't think that any of them would want to come here anyway if they hadn't already... besides, why was this girl asking for someone strong? Whatever!
"I don't know... but welcome to Recettear!" she said, enthusiasm permeating her tone.
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up.""Thanks. And that's too bad..." Shujiko replied with a small smile. This girl seemed nice at least. Clearly not a combatant. Oh well...
"'Recettear'? Bit of an odd name, that." Shujiko commented. "Uh, no offence."
Another glance around the shop, as if something new would suddenly pop into existence. Perhaps she should just settle for a cuddly toy or something...
"It's named after Tear and me," replied Recette, cheerfully. She was always glad to have a customer, regardless of if they initially entered the shop with the intent to buy anything or not. "I'm Recette. Do you see anything you like?"
The shelves were stocked with various foods, clothes, weapons, and books of all kinds.
The ship lurched. It was damaged, the internal stabilizers suffering critical failure. While this didn't impede the ship's ability to work, it did impede anyone inside it who wasn't sitting down's ability to stay upright. As such, Archer toppled backwards and landed as the ship jumped into full speed. She got back to her feet and found the nearest wall to support herself on, as the ship began to pass out of this dimension and into the next.
"Oh, dear. The toad, the monkey, and the dog have all screwed up."The Lady shrugged. "I can buy you dinner," she said, "my job pays off rather well, and I myself don't have much use for the credit and coins I earn; I lead a rather... frugal life."
She got up and signed to the barman. He nodded, and, after he finished cleaning the mug he held, went to their table.
"Yes?" he asked.
"Toph here is rather hungry... give her whatever she wishes, and put it on my tab, OK?" said the Lady.
The Lady, unfortunately, decided it was a better idea to deal with Toph's stomach rather than answering her and Ezio's question. The Master Assassin considered asking the question again, but he trusted his apparent ally to expound upon what she was hoping to achieve shortly.

Entering this particular shop was a brown-haired girl of questionable fashion sense. Black/white summer wear with a scarlet half skirt and blue or green ribbons wrapped around each arm? Clearly, appearance wasn't the most important thing for her.
She wore a bored expression, glancing around the shop as if hoping to find something that would capture her interest. Looked like there was a nice assortment of stuff... but nothing extravagant to her. Bleh, if only she would receive an order to attack someone...
Shujiko approached the young shop keeper, giving her a small, if surprisingly friendly smile. "Hey there. Can I ask... um, well... know anyone strong?" Shujiko asked. An odd request, sure, but if she was gonna wait, might as well look for something to stifle her boredom.
